Key Points Question Is access to reproductive health services in the United States associated with the market share of Catholic hospitals? Findings In this cross-sectional study of all US counties, 35.3% of US counties, where 38.7% of US women of reproductive age live, have a high Catholic hospital market share. Hospital networks in Marketplace health insurance plans included a lower share of Catholic hospitals than the overall county share. Meaning Restricted access to reproductive health services associated with high Catholic hospital market share is common in US counties, but health insurance plans’ hospital networks do not exacerbate this issue.
